CARTOONS!!! SOON!!! YAY! VERY SOON! FUCK YES!!!!!

i was so annoyed because the only thing that couldve gone wrong in july went wrong (Physical Health Issues) so i was off me usual meds for the entire month and really had no idea what to say, but i am CHEESED with the cartoon now!! kicken ass in the nick of time!!

hiya!! general update on stuffs in general following the fundraiser: things are going well! still cracking away at the comms i already had lined up before, and i'm still very thankful for how kind everyone has been!! i'll be starting on proper Animating Business within the next week or two!!

here's some of the Cool Stuff i've learned over the past ~7 months: Grease Pencil instantly rules if you're familiar with blender! internally its all vector lines, so you can just pick out + modify individual strokes which feels real nuts coming from animating 100% raster-based for so long

heya! i started a "Fund's Raiser" over on ko-fi to temporarily help cover essential bills, so i can focus getting to proper business on the animation for this summer! been beefing up my Cartoonsmaking Powers!! ko-fi.com/aimkid

after i upload the next animation this summer, i'll be following up on it shortly by finally doing plushies of some Classique "Aim Kid" characters, because it'd rule but also to help secure immediate stability going onwards!

heya!! i'm taking in another round of YCH (Your Character Here) animated icon commissions! here's some of my favorites from last time as an example.. a big thank you to everyone who got one before, and anyone who submitted in general!! forms.gle/J3ckuPtbjFKe...

in 'The Where' garn47 animation i basically reverse-rotoscoped luffy going Gear 5 onto Car. this is what it looks like from another angle.. i made him do that just because i thought it would be really funny to myself and friends, then floombo wanted to make it part of a full animation

im officially (and safely) off of my anti-psychotics which turns out were really dulling my imagination, and by extension motivation, for like 2+ years.... it feels like my soul has returned to me..... no more fucken around..... it's Game Time

to be clear stay on ur anti-psychotics if you need them. being able to get off of them without major drawbacks was specific to my case of psychosis where the main thing fueling it in the past was a big fear of it that i no longer have thanks to professional help

i'd hardly ever mentioned ai-generated art before but this fucking sucks. ai has been creeping into animation where despite how clockwork the animation process is, every choice is so human and thats what makes it beautiful and worthwhile bsky.app/profile/cats...

i can't stress enough that ANIMATION IS ART! even if it's a long, tedious process to do. as hard as people try to say otherwise, there is no right or wrong way to animate if you're actually making it instead of letting a neural network do it for you, sucking out any expression in the process

very random side project to exist alongside my 1000 other side projects: a parappa engine prototype! it uses a similar scoring system to parappa 1, so silly freestyling is included!!! im gonna try making a fangame around this.....

the plan is to, at the end of me finishing the fangame i want to build around this, release all the source code publicly for people to poke around and do whatever they want with!! assuming this project sees the light of day LOL.. it's smaller scale than anything else ive done game-wise so Maybe

it took forever to get this all set up because i also made an in-game chart editor, what you saw isn't just a hard-coded map, it's fully featured with variable length lines + multiple lines :D

dissociative amnesia: how it feels to Remember

it sucks and is often tragic but i still think its worth talking about every now and again so others like me don't feel so alone in these struggles.. i'm the wacky cartoonswoman but i'm still human. i know what its like to be deeply hurt with no outlet, that's the reason i dissociate

dissociative amnesia: how it feels to Remember

despite everything i'd always been very good about archiving various moments of my life via my pictures + videos folders id been keeping since 2015.. they can be a source of Great Humor but also a source of Great Pain. heres a video i took of my family's cat using a ps vita in 2015

something concerning has come up.. my animation of "Modify" on youtube was made ineligible for monetization with no notification. i strongly doubt this was intentional on Neil's part if it even had any involvement from him at all, since the claim comes from a company called "TuneCore"

to be absolutely clear, i doubt this is Neil / Lemon Demon's intentional doing, and i have e-mailed him today to try and get this sorted out. it's pretty concerning because the funds from that video grew to make up half of my income.. hoping for the best
